North Carolina Weekend Recap!

For someone who is as picture crazy as I am, my camera situation could really send this pregnant girl into a frenzy but I'm trying to remain calm.

I have no pictures from our trip to North Carolina. To top that off, the video that I took somehow didn't take.

So in order to capture our awesome weekend, it will have to be here, in words only. Bummer. So if you're not into details, then I would skip this post :)

Friday- We drove to the Houston airport but due to the monsoon that we drove through, it took us 3 hours. It didn't really phase us because we were so excited about experiencing a plane ride with Isaac again. Then, the flight was also 3 hrs., we caught a shuttle to our hotel, checked in, didn't eat dinner until almost 9, and the little man only had a 1 hr nap all day long. All of that to say is that he was a REAL TROOPER!

Saturday- We got to hang out with my grandmother "Gee-jo" in the morning, and Isaac just loved her! A shout out to my grandmother who reads my blog- we love you and are so glad we got to spend the weekend with you! We also took a taxi into some shopping areas to find some paraphenalia so we could show our support for the Wolf Pack! Then we gave our boy a little nap, then headed out to our first tail gating party as a family. My dad, grandmother, aunt, uncle, cousins and their fiances were there- it was quite the family affair.

Oh and the game! Bobby played really well. He is on defense and special teams and he was really tearing it up. Wish I could say the same for the rest of his team, but they'll get 'em next week. Isaac LOVED the big stadium, all the people, sitting with our family- especially his grandpa, the band, the fans, the lights, the music, and THE FOOD (my dad got him a huge tub of cotton candy- Isaac was squealing). I mean, he was livin' it up! Their mascot is the wolf and so all of their fans were howling and he really got into that. NC State unfortunately didn't win but it didn't phase us b/c we were having so much fun and enjoyed getting to see my cousin on the field.

We waited outside the locker rooms for Bobby to come out and then walked to a restaurant up the road. Then, we stumbled into our bedroom late that night.

Sunday- We got up, played around, little man napped, then headed out to the airport. The flight took extra long b/c of flight delays. After this marathon of a weekend, Isaac was showing off that he was his daddy's boy- a real travel extraordinaire. I think he was saying that he's ready for Europe ;)

We had such a good weekend, had lots of laughs and soaked in our family. Thanks dad for a wonderful trip!
